Note (Additional information about the record)
- As the original grant was made by the present king, and that charter mentions that it was for Isabel's services to 'Eleanor, late Queen of England, our consort', this petition would seem to date from between Eleanor of Castile's death in 1290, and Edward I's death in 1307 - and probably from closer to the later date than the earlier. Graham died in April 1306, but had suffered forfeiture at some point after 1293 as an adherent of the Scottish rebels.
